1, 2, 5 Round Clips...

For all you Garand owners that want 'options' to the 8 round clips...

Creedmore has 1, 2, 5 clips HERE.  These are good quality, and work well for competition shooting or if you're taking your M-1 in the woods and there is a five round limit...

Or if you live in NY... Just sayin...

    Ironic coincidence. Yesterday I reloaded enough 30-06 to load ten clips. This afternoon will be the same, only in AP.

    Whatever you use, keep your thumb out of the way.

    Carteach- LOL, you can use the 'sled' for single shot testing of your loads...

    WSF- Oh yeah!!!

    Real Garand shooters just single-load their rifles without such fancy clips, or cross two cartridges in an 8-rounder in true Camp Perry fashion. And you're not a real Garand shooter unless you've experienced "M-1 thumb" at least once...just sayin'.

    *snerk*

    I've no doubt The Powers of New York will disregard such clips. The fact the M1 itself can take 8 rounds renders it EVIL!!!

    Proud to say made it through Basic with the thumb intact. Did observe a dealer at a gun show a couple of years ago become familiar with the term.
